Abstract

Part 1 of the article introduced the concept of a structured approach in using computers when working with patients in a neurorehabilitation setting. Part 2 continues to build on the concept by means of a case study. The case study demonstrates the assessment and intervention techniques commonly used by the staff on a Regional Rehabilitation Unit. It identifies the complexity of the patient's condition and highlights the systematic methods used to help to restore damaged function or to compensate for the difficulties experienced. Part 2 offers a breakdown of the assessment process explored in part 1 and gives examples of everyday issues experienced by the rehabilitation team.
